Terrorist may get payout after prison isolation ‘breached human rights’ A judge ruled that Sahayb Abu, jailed for life for an Islamic State plot, suffered PTSD after being segregated and limited to talking through his cell window

Why the fuck are we entertaining this terrorist has the right to private life in jail, where he was put after being proven and judged guilty in a court of law. This is preposterous.

BBC chair apologises for 'error of judgement' over Trump speech edit in documentary Donald Trump has sent a letter threatening legal action, which the BBC will respond to

Trump has threatened to sue the BBC. It’s not just American media he wants to silence.

This is the type of person you’ll be voting for if you back Nigel Farage at the next election.

Manchester’s police chief chases down suspected shoplifter Sir Stephen Watson, credited with transforming his force, sprinted after the man and helped make the arrest moments after attending a parade for new recruits

How refreshing to see Police Chiefs getting involved in frontline policing again. They don’t always need to be behind desks, that’s what makes them out of touch.

Reform UK accused of ‘Trumpian wall of silence’ towards local press Councillors have resorted to media bans and refusals to engage with reporters to avoid answering the tough questions, publications claim

Here is the latest reason to not vote Reform, we’ll never get non-right-wing/sympathising press coverage.

They are turning the UK into a laughing stock & cannot be allowed to win.

Reform says Nigel Farage’s security has been cut Commons authorities decline to comment on individual cases as Zia Yusuf accuses Keir Starmer of demonisation

The UK is not the USA. The security is not at the PM’s whim, it’s dealt with by legislation and parliamentary authorities.

This whole turning the UK into mini USA via Reform’s briefings needs to stop.

Royal Parks debunks Nigel Farage claim migrants are ‘eating swans’ The Reform leader, whose party is leading in the polls, made the unsubstantiated claim in a radio interview

Nigel Farage is just a less orange, more alcohol drinking, cigarette smoking carbon copy of Trump.

This man cannot become Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice.
As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree.
Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich.
Silencing us impoverishes the whole world.
The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.
